Walter Dexter, DSO, MC, DCM, remains the most distinguished and highly decorated Australian military chaplain of all time.
Of all the chaplains of the AIF, he gave the longest frontline service, from the earliest appointments in 1914 until demobilisation in 1920. His work for the spiritual, material and emotional welfare of the soldiers was unmatched and in return he was held in the highest regard by the soldiers.
This book explores the extraordinary career of Dexter, taking in his colourful life and unparalleled achievements. His story should stand as a cornerstone in Australia’s Anzac memory.

n 1922, Adventism was torn between fundamentalists defending traditional doctrines and modernists pushing for relevance in a changing world. The conflict peaked at the 1922 General Conference, marking the end of A.G. Daniell's presidency. Though that era has passed, its debates still echo in the church today.

"The work of Dr. Campbell is comprehensive and brilliant. This contribution is an honest assessment of Adventist history."

1922 by Michael W. Campbell is available now at your local ABC and online: https://adventistbookcentre.com.au/1922.html

65 Adventist leaders met in Takoma Park, Maryland, for intense discussions after the death of Ellen G. White - so heated that records were sometimes paused and later hidden until 1975. A century later, Adventists still wrestle with questions about Ellen White.

Re-live the debates, re-examine the challenges. Re-ignite your passion for the Spirit of Prophecy.

"Michael Campbell provides the definitive account of the all-important 1919 Bible Conference. Its topics… continue to be debated and discussed in Adventist circles to this day"
